    Having another senior moment here. Anyone tell me where on God's
    green earth Reporter saves files to?

    It says ** Save ** ReportList04 Can I find the file, I cannot.

    Thanks

    Bob.

    Try Menu over the Reporter window, Click Config and a window will open,
    near the bottom...
    Default Save etc.

    Bit obvious, but don't forget to click Save bottom right of the config
    window. :-/

    I use it, too bad not to be able to drag the file into the destination
    folder, at least the first time. if I forget to modify the current
    directory before, I have to search for the file!.

    It's a detail, !Reporter is really very good, certainly the most used debugging tool, well done.

    The initial default is set to ReportSave#, so a save without a
    filename (eg from the menu) will be saved into your CSD (Current Set Directory), wherever that is. If you save using the command and a
    filename it will use that filename.

    If you change the default (which is remembered), it will always go
    there unless a filename is specified. A popular setting is
    RAM::RamDisc0.$.ReportList#
    as the files are usually of short-term use (hence in RAM) and the #
    is replaced by a numeric suffix.

    It's a detail, !Reporter is really very good, certainly the most
    used debugging tool, well done.

    Thanks - it is used here every day!
